My Recent Gallery...Spoiler installed....

[WeeYari]

Hmmm. Not too bad.

Did they remove the antenna, or work around it? Life expectancy of 5 years; do you know it that is garaged, or fully exposed 24/7/365?

im thinking 5 years with 24/7 365 outside.....

My roomate used to use that for show. He kept it on for almost 2 years and decided to take it of.. when we pulled it off, some of the clear coat on the paint came off also.

Granted, it wasnt an OEM paintjob before, but it was a $4k paint job none-the-less. I read later that that is actually happens all the time. hope this doesnt happen to you when its time to take it off. I hope the people who installed it know something that we didnt.

Looks good though.. i likes

not too worry about the vinyl.. if clear comes off later after peeling it then ill just paint in matte black..actually painting might be a better option just too lazy sanding and covering the rest of the car to paint of course no place to do it as well..

LOL.. Belive me, I will never touch another piece of sandpaper again after doing my crx. I do not blame you one bit for using vinyl.

nice RockLandToyota. Im curious also. Can you post a pick of it sometime? Id like to see your vinyl. Is it for toyota?

Looking good marcus.

This is what I was going to comment on -- the reason I like the RS wing is because of the "tilt" but yours somehow doesn't have it.

A quick Google search on the subject indicates that factory paint should not be at risk. I have found cautions against using it on non-factory paint as the vinyl may lift it.

AHH.. makes more sense then. He did not have factory paint. Then marcus should be fine.
